Photoblogging Monday Has Been Postponed...

...because I found out on Friday that I have been accepted to USC's Gould School of Law!

The deal was sealed on Saturday when I was rejected from Stanford, the last of my pending applications. I will be sending in my letter of intent today, and then comes the fun part of trying to figure out how to pay for it.

The reality of it all hasn't sunk in yet. I'm still in a daze.

USC was the school I wanted to get into, but I never thought about because I figured I had no chance and didn't want to be crushed. Instead, I dreamed of Ivy League schools that I knew I wouldn't get accepted to, but would have fun thinking about.

To celebrate, I've gone 'SC nuts - temporary blog colors (too bad I can't figure out how to change all of them), insistent fight song running a continuous loop through my head, and the sudden need to buy overpriced sweatshirts.
